Notes
- You can easily double this recipe if you want more servings.
- For a flavor variation, try adding a 1-inch piece of ginger to the ingredients before blending.
- If you aren’t on a dairy-free diet, you can use regular milk in this recipe. Or, you can use yogurt instead of milk for a thicker smoothie option.
- To make this a meal replacement smoothie, try adding 1-2 scoops of your favorite protein powder.
